Vallejo's History & Recipe of the Month!


Vallejo History


Sylvester Stewart was born the second of five children (Loretta, Sylvester, Freddie, Rose, and Vaetta, known as Vet) in Denton, Texas, on March 15, 1944. His devout African-American family was affiliated with the Church of God in Christ (COGC) and took their beliefs with them when they moved to Vallejo, California. Reared on church music, Sylvester was eight years old when he and three of his siblings (sans Loretta) recorded a 78-rpm gospel single for local release as the Stewart Four.


A musical visionary of the highest order, Sly Stone carved his way into our American cultural fabric and then, his work done, retreated. The music of Sly and the Family Stone, specifically the singles and LPs of that seminal seven-year period from 1968 to 1975, went on to influence generations that Sly could never have foretold.

Ingredients


1 1/2 cups panko


5 tablespoons vegetable oil


3 tablespoons grated Parmesan


2 teaspoons dried Italian seasoning


Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper


Four 3/4-inch bone-in pork chops (about 2 1/4 pounds)


Lemon wedges, for serving (optional)


Directions


Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Combine the panko, oil, Parmesan, Italian seasoning and 3/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a large resealable plastic bag. Put the pork chops in a large bowl and toss to coat with 1 tablespoon water. Place the pork chops in the bag and shake well to coat, pressing the breadcrumb mixture firmly into the meat.


Place the pork chops on a wire rack set on a baking sheet and top evenly with any breadcrumbs remaining in the bag. Bake until the breadcrumbs are dark golden and the internal temperature of the chop’s registers 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer (avoid touching bone), about 30 minutes. Serve immediately with lemon wedges, if using.
